Sak has been placed furthest away from the belt. I smell a work.

It also appears that Chute Boxe guys aren't allowed into the sun during training.

[Cracked_Knuckle]

The top 4 perhaps the ones they want in the final round? And a reserve match between Yoshida and Silva.

[bbbmarc]

let us play a lil; f.e.
1-5 saku-silva
2-6 shogun-arona
3-7 naka-lil nog
4-8 igor-alistar

any complains about my match-making?

I say let them fight in the order they're in in the photo.

Other than the fact I have seen, and am tired of seeing Naka vs L'Nog and Saku vs Silva, not bad at all. lol

[Grant Ellis]

I wanna see Igor vs. Shogun.

I wanna see Igor vs. Shogun.


Either way, that fight won't go 5 minutes into round 1.

i think pride will split their four toughist fighters. the only problem is decidiing who their top four guys are. in my opinion, it's these four;

silva
lil nog
arona
vovchanchyn

based on this, id split these four guys and aim to make the most exciting match-ups with what remains. my card based on this would be;

silva vs overeem - a stand-up war for the fans to really get excited about with the added spice that it appears overeem has developed somewhat of a ground game, so this one could be very interesting. this is one silva should take though, and fairly quickly at that by a ko after a brief but exciting throwdown.

lil nog vs sakuraba - the re-match. no-one wants to see sakuraba ko'ed, and there's little danger of this from lil nog imo, as he'll want to submit sakuraba. if saku can last the three rounds, we all know he can still finish guys, but lil nog should quitely eliminate sakuraba by decision here imo. as long as saku isn't humiliated, people will be happy, and there's much better chance of that not happening against lil nog than shogun, silva, vov and co.

vovchanchyn vs nakamura- naka should beat a top level lhw to advance through to the tournament finals imo, and igor has already proved his worth to get an "easier" fight. good match-up imo too.

arona vs shogun. revenge match for ninja's loss to arona, and could give us a natural semi-final between arona and silva. a great style clash imo.

It`s a great card imo. I hope that dse don`T put Silva vs Sak IV...
